New POV: New Problems

I've switched POV again and the writing is suffering. Lightening bounces the POV back and forth between two MCs, with one anomalous chapter (so far) in a completely different POV. When I picked up again I started in the anomalous chapter. Then I took the female MC. Now it's my male MCs turn. So just when I had found Kit's voice again, I've left it. Now I have to find Kevin's instead. But in spite of that I did (just) manage to get 500 words in today, so it's not a complete disaster.

I don't usually have this type of problem with changing POV either. But because this work has been stalled for so long I have to find the voices of the POV characters again. Apparently that happens one character at a time, as I actually write them. I suppose I should be glad there are really only two of them.

About

When I noticed my personal log (not published online or otherwise) was being over-run by writing entries I had to do something. So I decided to make a seperate place for them. Writing about writing for those who like reading about writing. And hoping I'll still get some actual writing done as well.

About Me

I'm a writer. Well it's worse than that really, I'm addicted to writing. So far writing is not paying any bills for me, I haven't yet reached the point where I feel my work is suitable to start looking for publishers, but I can't not write.
